Sat., April 9, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.: Join Suzanne Reisman, author of Off the Beaten (Subway) Track: New York City’s Best Unusual Attractions, for a tour of three unique places in the Bronx. Put on your walking shoes to ponder the World’s Largest Armory (and discuss its future), see the cottage in which Edgar Allen Poe wrote Annabel Lee (and the bed his wife died in), and marvel over the busts in the outdoor Hall of Fame of Great Americans – all just a subway ride away.
